Buttercup Flower Bulbs

Cheerful, 3-inch flowers create a carpet of easy-growing color

Buttercups, as it turns out, aren’t always yellow! Choose from the butter-gold originals that bloom in early spring, or the pale pink bicolors that will open in midsummer. Both are deer resistant and very easy to grow. Site them in full sun to part shade to get them to naturalize an area, where these 3 to 4 inch-tall plants will create a carpet of color.
